    We live in the flight path of the medi vac helicopter , our small town hospital and the big hospital in Kalamazoo. One just flew over a few minutes ago, never a good sign.

    hey now! No need to go insulting @Marty65 like that

    I’m not in the flight path of anything here. That was a fire fighting super scooper doing some practice passes over the reservoir. Their hanger is only a 15 minute flight away so easy spot for them to fly to here. Too many boats on the water for them to actually scoop but they made about a dozen low passes.

    Our nephew who moved to Hawaii sent this. I wish I was a 24 year old surfer! He used his surfing and skateboarding connections to land an invitation to move in with a group of semi-locals who needed a roommate to fit into their lifestyle. Pretty cool and interesting kid. IMG_5384.jpg

    We got a 1/2” yesterday, none today, possibly for some tomorrow. Things are still pretty dry. How you feeling Chuck?

    I'm used to hearing aircraft flying overhead , I was at 3RD MAW MCAS El Toro for 3yrs during my active duty . Try sleeping with 24/7/365 flight ops and hearing fighter aircraft flying around

    When I lived in the High Desert of Socal my house was directly under the Military flight path of MAGCC 29 Palms or NTC FT Irwin . I had hundreds of Military flight ops and watching CH53's , CH 46's and FA18's flying almost on the deck





    This is the time of the year where the waves start picking up along the North shore . Back in 2018 the waves were 28' and challenged alot of surfers
